The Board of Gelion Plc (the "Company") is pleased to announce a retail offer via BookBuild (the "Retail Offer") through the issue of new ordinary shares of £0.01 each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). Under the Retail Offer up to 1,000,000 new Ordinary Shares (the "Retail Offer Shares") will be made available at a price of 15 pence per Retail Offer Share (the "Issue Price").
Capitalised terms used in this announcement (the "Announcement") have the meanings given to them in the Company's announcement released at 4:35 p.m. on 18 December 2024, unless the context provides otherwise.
In addition to the Retail Offer and, as announced earlier today, the Company proposes to raise £1.5 million (gross) through a placing and subscription of new Ordinary Shares (together with the Retail Offer Shares, the "New Shares") at the Issue Price. For the avoidance of doubt, the Retail Offer is not part of the Placing or Subscription. Completion of the Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the completion of the Placing and Subscription but completion of the Placing and Subscription is not conditional on the completion of the Retail Offer.
The Issue Price represents a discount of approximately 14.3 per cent to the closing share price of 17.5 pence per existing Ordinary Share on 18 December 2024 (being the latest practicable date prior to the date of this Announcement).
A separate announcement has been made regarding the Placing and Subscription and their terms and sets out the reasons for the Placing and Subscription and use of proceeds. The proceeds of the Retail Offer will be utilised in the same way as the proceeds of the Placing and Subscription, as announced earlier today.
The Fundraising is conditional, inter alia, on the New Shares being admitted to trading on the AIM market ("AIM") of the London Stock Exchange plc ("Admission"). It is anticipated that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the New Shares will commence on AIM, at 8.00 a.m. on 24 December 2024.
